Off with its head!

Stab it in the eyes!

>>609828
go nuts on it, you don't have any real defense to its gaze so just kill it or cleave its eyes before it can use it again.

attempt a decapitation !

bring your other sword down in the afflicted area, see if you can hack through all the way.

Yeah, aiming to blind or decapitate it is your best bet. Its mouth and eyes are its best weapons.

And if you force it to turn or move its head away from you, hey, free attacks on the body.

Use a fate point to channel {Breaker}
Break the Basilisk.

Further ensures that the Basilisk can not use its petrification again. A mess has been made in the process.

The Basilisk has lost 24 life from a severe critical hit aimed to decapitate.
The Basilisk is now dead.

>>610653
woo! keep that head, we need a trophy. and maybe a way to prove we killed it. are the parts of that thing worth anything? Use some of that [Knowledge] of yours

Dang, son.

Yeah, take the head, and see if there's any other valuable parts that you can sell. Other than that, maybe it's time to go back to the doctor to get your arm treated. It doesn't look like there's poison, but just in case. Then it's time to collect the bounty.

bring back that head and assess your injury

Claim proof of kill, wipe blood (or equivalent) off your swords, and see about treating that wound on your arm.

Use your Knowledge to know what sells for more, go to the clinic, go to check in with the Hunters, then Go home!

Take care of your wounds first, and see if you can take advantage of the body, to earn a few extra cash from it

Further uses her knowledge of creatures to her advantage and she removes the eyes, fangs, and the poison sac as they are valuable. As a trophy to prove her hunt, she takes the head. Figuring to get some help she travels to the clinic on her way back to the inn.

To her disappointment, the person who runs said clinic was gone from their workplace and waiting patiently for supplies to be fulfilled. It doesn’t look like she is going to get professional help in a timely manner, but she doesn’t know when Meyeri would return. Further could do it herself, if she wanted to try.

What should Further do? Wait for the clinic to open back up, Go back to the Inn, Give herself first aid, or go to the Hunter’s Guild.
A wound can only receive healing once, recovery other than from a fresh injury requires rest!

hunters guild might have some medical staff on hand maybe.

Are you capable of assessing the seriousness of your wound? Or can you use your knowledge of creatures to check what the risks of not having your wound treated by a professional might be?

Normally, I'd say to wait for it. But we did receive the mysterious warning that we'd want to contact your friend soon...

>>611922
Hunter's Guild, they might have someone with First Aid experience there too.

>>611922
You have no skill in first aid. I think you're best off hoping there's a medic in the hunter's guild.

Yeah, go claim your reward to the Hunter's Guild before that head starts smelling. Hopefully they'll be able to help you out, or at least direct you to someone who can do it.

Turn in your hunt, if no one can help there just do it yourself and go home. You've only lost 3 of your Life. Any attempt at first aid in addition to rest should heal that up fine.

Arriving at the Hunter´s main office, Further drops off the Basilisk´s head, “There you go, I took care of it. I was curious, the clinic was closed. Is there anyone here who could take care of the wound I received?”
“Oh, yeah. HEY MINGYI! GET IN HERE.”

“Hey?” A skeleton steps into the room, waving their hand in a very blasé fashion.
“New Hunter got bit by the Basilisk, I have to determine her rank and set her up on the paygrade. Would you mind taking care of her wound.”
“I guess,” they reply.

mention that theres a skeleton in all of us, unless youre an insect folk then its on the outside and if youre a robot or a plant then thats a whole different story

Show the sawbones your wound.

It was getting late, back at the book mines The Librarian and Krasavits were gazing through books. Krasavits had trouble scouring through the books that were in the same language but The Librarian was well versed in what seemed to be all languages.

“It’s got to be in one of these! It’d be a lot easier if you didn't need a specific version of the song. How are you doing?” The Librarian bubbles excitedly.

Krasavits only had around three books that she could even read, “Can’t find anything myself, I’m glad you’re here or I wouldn't find it on time.”
“Yes! It’s great that I exist,” The massive woman giggles.

Well, no point on leaving now that we've come so far. Stick around a bit longer and keep searching. Ask politely if she's coming to the festival.

stretch provocatively

>Yes! It’s great that I exist
And so modest, too!

Keep skimming through the books you can read.

Maybe the language or song is related to ancient Rotarm, since that's where the coin came from? Have you taken a look at the coin- what's depicted on it, what does it say?

Have you shown the librarian the note yet? She's fluent in many languages, could she read it?

Thank the Librarian for finding it for you. Hope that Further doesn't wait for you too long.

“Miss Librarian, are you going to the Festival tomorrow?”
“Oh I HAVE to be there, my lovely tiny man is going to be there with me and I have to make sure he is safe, like a precious baby.”
“Wow, what a lucky guy! What’s his name?”
“Oh, everyone knows him.”
“Is he a celebrity or something?”
“Jianyu is so gentle and considerate, he’s smiled for me like three times!”

Krasavits pauses, she knew of a Jianyu, but didn’t think this giant bookworm was talking about the same one. The snake inquires for clarification, “Aha, Emperor Jianyu? The emotionless immortal.”
“YEAH, he helps me find ALL OF THE books.”

There is a lengthy pause, Krasavits is incredibly embarrassed to be assigning menial tasks to a lady who seems to be the leader of the nation’s girlfriend. Eventually the pause is broken when The Librarian squeals and hands over a book, the page displaying the specific rendition of the song they were looking for.
“I FOUND IT, HURRAY!”

Will Krasavits stay and talk to The Librarian longer, or will she go back to the Lilac Inn?

Quickly look over the song as you thank the librarian.

Stay and talk with her a little longer before you go. She did help you a lot!

>>619515
Thank her profusely, probably blush and with lots of bowing, but don't use up too much more of her time, head on back to inn.

Well, I guess that's the reason why she's a target and "needs" protection.

Thank her, copy the song (or straight away ask if you can borrow the book) and excuse yourself. You need to get some rest, otherwise you won't be in shape for the festival tomorrow!

thank her in your special way and head back to the inn

>>619515
You really shouldn't be dragon your tail in one place, but she seems like she'll really open up to you if you really get down and read into what she says.

What i'm saying is that you should stay with cute dragon library lady.

>>619515
Shower her with praise.
Also, tell here where/when you plan to perform during the festival! Maybe she'll enjoy the fruits of her labor. Maybe you can do a song especially for her, too <3

>>619515
Also: Show her the coin! This is probably the most knowledgeable person you will ever meet and they are delighted to share.

You should go home, you need some rest and it'd be good to talk to Further about the things that happened.

Stay

>>619877
Seconding this. She's a librarian and is highly knowledgeable and loves helping people. She may know something about that coin which may give you another clue about your patron!

Krasavits decides to stick around and talk to the Librarian more. Now that she has the book with the song she is to sing for the next day, she shows the big abnormal dragon like being the Coin that she was given by the mysterious masked figure earlier.

“Do you know anything about this?”
“OH WOW. You bet your cute little fangs I do. This coin is from back during the Age of Order. About a millennia old or so. This was printed during the reign of the final King before the land was corrupted.

The Kingdom of Rotarm was one of the first nations in the world of Eight. It is past the desert and over the mountains on the far west of this continent. The southern continent of was eventually established Amaranton. Mingxia developed to the east, and far over the ocean independently were the lands of the Folitus and Buena Vida.
The Prince and the Princess noticed some foul evil about to burst and they damned Rotarm. Some say for selfish reasons, some say to save their father, some say to confine the horrors. Few go toward the Castle of Rotarm, not many have layed eyes and survived.
This coin is old, but links to rather unfortunate events really…”

Krasavits listens with great interest. She won’t be home for some time.

Are there specific things Krasavits wants The Librarian to teach her?

>>620478
Pickup tips, if she got the emperor, imagine what you could catch!

Or maybe some [Music] or [Negotiating] tips?

Exchange beauty tips.

Or maybe ask her to tell you about the song you just learned and its significance, why would someone want you to sing it at the festival.

Maybe also ask her about the festival itself, and its significance.

Maybe on how the people were cursed? That might be relevant to our client.

I suppose staying late might be disadvantageous with Further's warning to talk to Krasavits sooner than later, but Kras doesn't know that.

how about a curse ?

Hashidoi was doing last minute stuff around her restaurant. Closing hours were soon. With the Festival tomorrow, most people were very busy. There is a knock at the door. The dragon scoots over to disappoint a customer.

Upon opening the door, Meyeri without their hat holding a bag smoothly presses in the door, “Sorry if I am interrupting you. You wanted to go to the Festival together, right? How would you like me spending the night with you? We could spend the whole festival with one another.”

Hashidoi was flushed so intensely, she is unable to immediately respond to them.

>>620639
say yass

say "it's possible"

Thats a yes.

Say yes with kisses.

The Kibai clan dragon turns around and feigns an internal debate.
“You think I have personal time to just throw around right now? I have my shop to run,” Hashidoi taps her chin.
“O-oh. I suppose I should have called first, I was inconsiderate and didn’t think about you being busy. I’m really sorry, I’ll still see you tomorrow?” Pouts the orca.

Hashidoi spends a moment more stewing in Meyeri’s embarassment. Waiting for a satisfying level of fidgeting to be obtained, and before the healer could start leaving. When Meyeri starts to turn around, Hashidoi snatches their arm and drag them inside playfully in tandem with flipping the sign over to read, ‘Closed’.

Further arrives back at the Lilac Inn, and is immediately called over by Louju.
“Welcome back, Miss Further. Your fellow room dweller has not returned, before you ask. I have not heard from her. I did however receive these two tickets from the lady Hashidoi who stopped by. These are for you and Krasavits for the Festival,” There is a pause, followed by the most dry, “lucky you,” that Further had ever heard.

“Uh, thank you. I’m really tired from work, and I guess I have to go to the festival tomorrow. Please tell Krasavits about them and to hurry to the room when she gets back, okay? Thank you Louju.”

“It is my pleasure to serve my guests. I will let her know upon her arrival. The most pleasant dreams will be yours, Miss Further,” Louju returns to her calm apathetic gaze toward the front door.

>>621643
Lucky you! I guess just rest in the bed for a bit.

Ask if you can order a food to your room. If that's the case, do it, and rest for a bit.

Go upstairs, vaguely wondering when Krasavits will be back. You did have that cryptic warning about talking to her...

have a ghost shower

eat some ghost food

Further gathers some sandwiches and some nice drinks for when Krasavits returns back.
After a long while, Further eats some of her sandwich because she is very hungry.

Unbeknownst to Further, Krasavits is at the Library having very educational conversations with a very large Guardian.
The wraith eventually falls asleep waiting for the snake to come home.

The flower shop was closed a couple of hours ago, and Dooryard was cleaning his body in an attempt to clear his mind. There would be no fun at the festival for the pseudo-dragon. Immortals were concerned about assassinations, and that made him worried as heck too. He wanted to rest, if someone died tomorrow it wouldn’t be because Dooryard wasn’t alert enough.

It was up to the guard to ensure everyone else’s Festival was enjoyable even if he would not be able. Dooryard was a soldier, and he had no idea what the next day was going to take him. None of them did.

Scrub yourself good, then go to bed early, you gotta be ready for tomorrow.

Do you even sleep? Meditate, maybe. Do some target practice or exercises? Walk around town looking out for anyone suspicious?

All you can do is be at the top of your game. Worrying yourself into being less effective won't help.

It was very late, and it would be a handful of hours before the sun was out. The emperor stood with his back to all four of his guardians. It had actually been a very long time since all of them had been in one place. The guardians all worked on their own missions and individually returned to him when they were done and ready for another task.

“Thank you all for showing up here. I love all four of you very much, and I am sorry that this may be the last time we all get to see each other.”
“Jianyu, please don’t talk like that,” the Librarian interrupts.
There is a pause, and none of them express much, but the feeling of concern is tangible.

Interrupting Jianyu was remarkably dangerous, particularly during important discussions. Jianyu responds with a very soft tone, “Kiimarda, my darling, the world depends on these changes to be built into a better place. We know someone dies tomorrow, we know that some of us will die. We must still fulfill our roles, because no one else can.”

The Librarian, Kiimarda, nods and glances to the ground forlorn. Cibao is as cheerful as always. The Magician snickered and waited. The doll tarried in silence.

1. try really hard to not cry
2. cry

Oh hey it's that dude that told us about the song. Funny we've met all the guardians already.

Ok, I've got this.

Librarian: don't die tomorrow.

Might as well acknowledge that tomorrow is going to be a bad day. But that doesn't mean you need to accept it, forge your own destiny.

Huh. One guardian, each with a connection to one of our other characters. That... doesn't bode well with the apparently fated death thing.

Cibao make a peace sign.

>>623255
Maybe they should discuss this whole "one of us is going to die tomorrow" thing. Is it a surprise to us?

Why don't you know who is going to die? What is changing?

“I trust you have all completed your tasks,” and the Guardians all nod politely in response.
“It is important that I see those five after the ceremony.”
The Magician speaks up, “Master Jianyu, why are you putting your trust in these regular people? They’re nobodies. We could do these things easily.”

“I was once an orphan raised by our church, you must let the butterflies emerge.
The citizens of our country are all valuable. If you did the things I am asking of them, it would be obvious, and it would be loud and messy. If they rise above nobodies, as you call them, it will happen after they have helped Mingxia.” Jianyu speaks slow, and firm. He’s not angry, but the four can see he could be easily despite how dull and expressionless the man was.

“Kiimarda, I will stay with you tonight.” The emperor turns his head, “All my work comes to bloom starting tomorrow. It is unfortunate that people must die for it to happen. Rest well.”

End of the second day.
End of the Session.
